EUV is trading at $22.43, up +2.05%, as Intel surged on reports of potential U.S. memory-chip manufacturing cooperation with SK Hynix, supporting semiconductor sentiment.

  • Intel rose about 5% premarket, though discussions remain exploratory and unconfirmed.
  • The broader market is modestly positive, while stronger retail sales, elevated Treasury yields, and the pending Federal Reserve decision are limiting gains. Earlier AI-safety warnings remain an overhang, but semiconductor strength currently outweighs those concerns.
